charging

Hey all, new around here so I hope I'm doing this right! I recently picked up an '07 FZ6 S2 with ~10k mi., on the test ride and on the way home I didn't notice any issues- the bike ran great. However after doing some slow speed practice in a parking lot on the ride back home the check engine...

So I’m having a tough time here finding something that will work. I bought a SAE cord so I can smart charger my bike off season. I’m looking to get a phone mount that also has the ability to change my phone with wireless and wired charging. I wanted to use my existing SAE connection to supply...

Hi everyone, I'm brand new to this forum and just picked up a 2007 fz6 a couple of weeks back. She's a bit rough around the edges hence the cheap price (900$). It's a project bike to do some touring this summer around Ireland. Anyway, the first issue I had with it was the rectifier. The...

Hi All, I've been quiet on the site for awhile now due to my life being tugged in many different directions. But I've been lurking and enjoying all the great sharing and help we've provided for each other. So here's my story: Got a new battery as the OEM quit holding a charge the...

So, I had a weird issue when I took my bike out yesterday for a couple hours. A bit of background: Run a Battery Tender Junior on the bike for about 2 months to get ready for the season. Also installed a USB port so I could charge my phone/use it as a GPS. Bike starts out running fine...

My fz6 is charging (while at 5000 rpms) at 16.5V. I replaced the rectifier and it give me the same problem. It continues to charge at 16.5. The Ac Voltage output from the stator is at 13-14 vAC. Any suggestions? Checked the Diodes in the R/R The oem has a .510 and all three and the...

Due to some of the threads re charging voltages at lower RPM's, I made the below video to clarify. History on the bike; (1) BD43, dual headlight mod, PIAA high performance bulbs (2) Battery is approx 3.5 years old, (ridden 365), and due for replacement. (3) Idle is intentionally...

So I posted to this forum a little while ago with the issue of the bike sputtering between 1k and 2k; I replaced the spark plugs and charged the battery while I was at it; after that everything seemed to be A-OK. But the yesterday I was having a spirited ride in the back roads and popped a...

I made one electrical mod by doing biker_dude43's dual headlight mod. I love having two low beam lights, but after a week of riding and then letting the bike sit for 3 days the battery was almost dead (not enough juice to start the bike). I'm using standard wattage bulbs so I didn't think there...
